And there are already people who go after old people by phone, so I don't doubt that going after old people through information obtained on the web is far behind, if it isn't already happening.<BR/><BR/>So if someone wanted to go after my grandmother, not only would they have information about her from the blog to find her, but they could probably convince her that they were friends of my in-laws, because of all the information about them on the blog. I just think this is a really bad idea.laughinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999190808736700318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34877723.post-50171643925607270852009-03-14T11:16:00.000-04:002009-03-14T11:16:00.000-04:00One of the bloggers I read used to have another bl...One of the bloggers I read used to have another blog (with very personal information), and I guess she had everyone at her workplace end up reading it. So she scrapped that one, and made a new one and is more careful.dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34877723.post-88241638476497456712009-03-14T10:22:00.000-04:002009-03-14T10:22:00.000-04:00I have a female friend who was stalked by some nut...I have a female friend who was stalked by some nut-bag who found her blogging. She was a very careful person. Far more careful than I am. He still managed to find out everything about her. Very creepy stuff. She ended up moving, going unlisted and changing everything... phone number, even a new computer and internet company all to cut him off. <BR/><BR/>The good news is that she did get rid of him and she is back blogging. But it was scary for her. All the changes were expensive too, but she had the means so it could have been worse. I'd just have to stay where I was.<BR/><BR/>But I think that privacy is a big deal and no one should mess with another's privacy. Nor should anyone ever give out the location of any elderly person. I assume that your grandma is elderly. The elderly are so easy to victimize. <BR/><BR/>This is good food for thought. I need to examine my own practices and see what sort of adjustments are in order. I give away a lot of information. Probably way too much sometimes. Hummmm....Ananda girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578471199205376974noreply@blogger.com
